Bespoke HTML Email Marketing 1 Day Introduction
Course Details
Delivering mailshots to promote products and services has become standard business practice over recent years. However, designing professional looking HTML mailshots presents a significant challenge particularly with design. We have no control over which email client program a recipient uses. Recipients may also use hand held devices to interact with their email. For a web designer, CSS is now the standard method of formatting and laying out a web page. Unfortunately email client programs tend ignore CSS leaving the recipient looking at a broken design that looks nothing like the original intent. This course is designed to meet that challenge and look at how we can design and format an HTML mailshot and confidently predict how it will look on most email client programs.
This hands-on course is designed for new users who wish to design HTML mailshots. No previous experience of HTML is required. However, those attending should be familiar with their operating system and their email client program.
Course Target Audience and delegate prerequisites:
This course is intended for those who are new to creating HTML emails and who want to develop skills to create attractive, effective email-marketing campaigns.
You will need basic PC or Mac skills, including a solid understanding of a computer's operating system (Windows or Mac OS). You will also need to know how to launch a program, create and save files, and copy files from CDs and other media.

The course was great and Kevin was very knowledgeable, however it was slightly fast paced for me on the second day as I am still struggling with certain elements such as tables. Also it was disappointing that I was not given details of the software I would need installing prior to the course commencing, however the team were very helpful on the phone when trying to sort this out. I would advise for future delegates, that you state exactly what software is needed at least two weeks before the course. It would also be good to have a guide to follow for reference in addition to the 6 months support.

Alan was really knowledgeable and genuine. The course ran well, with a well thought out plan. Starting with the very basics, and building on the knowledge as we progressed through. I liked that once we understood a concept, we could copy code to "fill it in" to then concentrate on new knowledge. Thanks Alan!

Due to the current situation with Coronavirus, I appreciate this course was unable to be done in person. With saying that, the course was held well over Zoom and my understanding at the end of the day was very satisfactory. The only comment I would like to make is that, this was originally intended to be a two-day course in person and I feel that applying all the content into one day (as well as being online) was quite intense. To summarise, it was a good course, I have learnt many new techniques and I am pleased with the developments I can take forward in my career. Thank you.

Great knowledge and training ability from Alan. Really friendly and explains things well. However i felt the course was slightly rushed and could be improved by thorough walk-throughs and definition meanings of the coding language to help understand further. I appreciate there is alot to get through within the time constraints.

Thoroughly enjoyed the training course, Kevin was great and very knowledgeable. I would have liked a little more on Dreamweaver/ Outlook specific as that is what my company uses but as there was 6 of us in the class, it was great to go through the code and basics of building an email. Would recommend and come back for another course.
